session_encode
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)
session_encode — Encodes the current session data as a session encoded string
Description
session_encode ( ) : string|false
session_encode() returns a serialized string of the contents of the current session data stored in the $_SESSION superglobal.
By default, the serialization method used is internal to PHP, and is not the same as serialize(). The serialization method can be set using session.serialize_handler.
Return Values
Returns the contents of the current session encoded, or false on failure.
Notes
Warning
Must call session_start() before using session_encode().
